Games can be characterized by "what the player does."<ref name = "craw"/> This is often referred to as [[gameplay]]. Major key elements identified in this context are tools and rules that define the overall context of game and that in turn produce skill, strategy, and chance.{{Clarify

Many games described as "single-player" may be termed actually puzzles or recreations.

Games can take a variety of forms, from competitive [[sport]]s to [[board game]]s and [[video game]]s.
 
=== Sports ===
{{Main|Sport}}
[[Image:UEFA-Women's Cup Final 2005 at Potsdam 1.jpg|thumb|right|[[Football (soccer)|Association football]] is a popular sport worldwide.]]
Many sports require special equipment and dedicated playing fields, leading to the involvement of a community much larger than the group of players. A [[city]] or [[town]] may set aside such resources for the organization of sports leagues.

Certain competitive sports, such as [[racing]] and [[gymnastics]], are not games by definitions such as Crawford's (see above) — despite the inclusion of many in the [[Olympic Games]] — because competitors do not interact with their opponents; they simply challenge each other in indirect ways.

==== BoardGammanyn gamesboayrd ====
A tabletop game generally refers to any game where the elements of play are confined to a small area and that require little physical exertion, usually simply placing, picking up and moving game pieces. Most of these games are, thus, played at a table around which the players are seated and on which the game's elements are located. A variety of major game types generally fall under the heading of tabletop games. It is worth noting that many games falling into this category, particularly [[party game]]s, are more free-form in their play and can involve physical activity such as mime, however the basic premise is still that the game does not require a large area in which to play it, large amounts of strength or stamina, or specialized equipment other than what comes in the box (games sometimes require additional materials like pencil and paper that are easy to procure).

==== Dexterity/coordination games ====
This class of games includes any game in which the skill element involved relates to manual dexterity or hand-eye coordination, but excludes the class of video games (see below). Games such as [[jacks]], [[paper football]], and [[Jenga]] require only very portable or improvised equipment and can be played on any flat level surface, while other examples, such as [[pinball]], [[billiards]], [[air hockey]], [[foosball]], and [[table hockey games|table hockey]] require specialized tables or other self-contained modules on which the game is played. The advent of home video game systems largely replaced some of these, such as table hockey, however air hockey, billiards, pinball and foosball remain popular fixtures in private and public game rooms. These games and others, as they require reflexes and coordination, are generally performed more poorly by intoxicated persons but are unlikely to result in injury because of this; as such the games are popular as [[drinking games]]. In addition, dedicated drinking games such as [[quarters]] also involve physical coordination and are popular for similar reasons.
 
==== Board games ====
[[Image:PetitsChevaux1.svg|thumb|right|[[Parcheesi]] is an American adaptation of a board game originating in [[India]].]]
 
{{Main|Board game}}
Board games use as a central tool a board on which the players' status, resources, and progress are tracked using physical tokens. Many also involve [[dice]] and/or cards. Most games that simulate war are board games (though a large number of video games have been created to simulate strategic combat; see "Video Games" below), and the board may be a map on which the players' tokens move. Virtually all board games involve "turn-based" play; one player contemplates and then makes a move, then the next player does the same, and a player can only act on their turn. This is opposed to "real-time" play as is found in some card games, most sports and most video games.
 
<!--
Some games, such as [[chess]] and [[go (game)|Go]], are entirely deterministic, relying only on the strategy element for their interest. Children's games, on the other hand, tend to be very luck-based, with games such as [[Candy Land]] having virtually no decisions to be made. Most other board games combine strategy and luck factors; the game of [[backgammon]] requires players to decide the best strategic move based on the roll of two [[dice]]. Trivia games have a great deal of randomness based on the questions a person gets. [[German-style board game]]s are notable for often having rather less of a luck factor than many board games.
 
Board game groups include [[race games]], [[:Category:Roll-and-move board games|roll-and-move]] games, [[abstract strategy games]], [[word games]], and [[wargaming|wargames]], as well as the [[trivia]] and German-style board games mentioned above. Some board games fall into multiple groups and even incorporate elements of other genres: [[Cranium (game)|Cranium]] is one popular example, where players must succeed in each of four main skills: artistry, live performance, trivia, and language skill.

==== Card games ====
{{Main|Card game}}
{{further|[[Collectible card game]]}}
Card games use a deck of cards as their central tool. These cards may be a standard [[Playing card#Anglo-American|Anglo-American]] (52-card) deck of [[playing cards]] (such as for [[Contract Bridge|bridge]], [[poker]], [[Rummy]], etc.), a regional deck using 32, 36 or 40 cards and different suit signs (such as for the popular German game [[skat (card game)|skat]]), a [[tarot card games|tarot deck]] of 78 cards (used in Europe to play a variety of [[trick-taking game]]s collectively known as Tarot, Tarock, and/or Tarocchi games), or a deck specific to the individual game (such as ''[[Set (game)|Set]]'' or [[1000 Blank White Cards]]). [[Uno (card game)|Uno]] and [[Rook (card game)|Rook]] are examples of games that were originally played with a standard deck and have since been commercialized with customized decks. Some [[collectible card game]]s such as ''[[Magic: The Gathering]]'' are played with a small selection of cards that have been collected or purchased individually from large available sets.

Some board games include a deck of cards as a gameplay element, normally for randomization and/or to keep track of game progress. Conversely, some card games such as [[Cribbage]] use a board with movers, normally to keep score. The differentiation between the two genres in such cases depends on which element of the game is foremost in its play; a board game using cards for random actions can usually use some other method of randomization, while Cribbage can just as easily be scored on paper. These elements as used are simply the traditional and easiest methods to achieve their purpose.
